Future-Focused Friday: Things That Reminded Us That Nothing's Im-pasta-ble

We’re feeling saucy this week. You know, marinara, carbonara, puttanesca, pesto.

We're feeling extra proud this week because our Film Festival started, and as always, these student films dove right into the heart of what makes study abroad so totally, absolutely, undeniably amazing! 🎬While we wait for travel to safely resume, let these films from Tokyo, London, and Nantes blow you away with the sights you'll see ⛩, the friends you'll make 🧑🤝👧, and the fun you'll have abroad 🎉.

Future-Focused Friday: When The First Day of Fall Proves That Time Is In Fact Passing By

With this Tuesday marking the first day of fall, we've been embracing the changing of the seasons. We're hoping the turn of a new 🍁 will help us find answers to those random curiosities we all have, like why some people call it "fall" and others call it "autumn" or why Americans are obsessed with pumpkins (don't even try to deny it!).
